My opinion is, that it would be better, if the Arch Linux logo would be removed from http://snapcraft.io/ , because I guess it gets across a wrong message.
You are aware that we package snapd in [community]? [1]
I'm not sure why ask for the logo to be removed from the website, technically we support the snapd package.

Yes, I've tested building a snap and also installed snapd. Developers using Arch Linux could be interested to provide their software by snaps and might want to have a complete environment. There's nothing wrong with providing it, for those who have the opinion, that it is a good approach. However, the message of Ubuntu's http://snapcraft.io/ is ambiguous. To install software on Arch Linux installs, even AUR helpers aren't official supported, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_helpers , so I assume that snaps are also not supported. Again, if others don't share my opinion it's ok, no need to discuss it, now I only try to clarify my point of view. Regards, Ralf
